    Having a solid go to market strategy with at least 3 month leeway helps with proper planning and execution.

    @jaketital From your experience it took 3 months to plan out a proper PH launch? Was this your first PH launch or have you done a few before?

    @jaketital Organize beforehand and ensure that you get people to help support you. Let everyone know about your launch in all the channels available to you.

    Hey Dave, it's all about building community here. Engage in discussions, take the time to really have a look at other launches and provide helpful comments, follow folks you find interesting, etc. You cannot start early enough with this. I also recommend connecting on LinkedIn with people, so you can message them about your launch directly when the day is there.

    @jopie Thanks for the tip! LinkedIn is my go to spot but sounds like I should be engaging and warming people up there along with my network. Any groups on LinkedIn or more individiuals?

    @dave_vu There are some groups, but personal connections work better I think. Hard to say for sure though.
